    It looks gravitationaly dominated. If aliens needed this to move thru the solar system I'd be disappointed...it look like it took over a year to come in and out. Warp drive fail? Ho hum...slow day for astronomers I guess?

    Amazing that they could detect a 1/4 mile object traveling at 44 kilometers per second at such a distance - there is still a possibility of imaging it as well.

    Even if it's just a flying rock, it's still pretty cool that it came from outside the solar system in such an unusual trajectory.

    There’s an infinite number of possibilities that can take place in an infinite expanse.

    My theory is that the object is the accumulated spirit of all of Andre Roberson's bricks.
